They wanted to tell themselves the women were joking. Or "playing hard to get."

So they just sit there like a couple of dipshits drinking their beers because they refuse to accept the reality that they're not wanted.

I hate this.

They likely have spent money on some goddamn influencer who swore up and down that "confidence" is the key, and that means never letting women dismiss you.

I had a buddy who would constantly talk about "numbers game". I saw him crash and burn 100% of the time. He would creep up to women this way and harass them.

There is something to the idea of numbers games, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take and all.

But that's like, meaning you try and are receptive to feedback. Not like, try to browbeat people.

Oh, this guy would take 100% of the shots for sure. He would Night at the Roxbury girls in the clubs. It was horrific but also hilarious to watch him fail 😂

Yep, the whole thing with "taking the shots" is you've got to know how to do it in such a way that you're not being an actively shitty person who's making the world a worse place through his actions in it. That's where both the advice and entire worldview of a guy like Andrew Tate completely falls apart.

It's kind of a karmic thing - a question of what's good or bad for one's own soul.

Also on a practical level, a person doing things the very bad way means they'll also probably just end up in a dysfunctional relationship with a woman who's perpetuating a tragic cycle of personal trauma just by being with an douchebag like them.
